5 Ceiling Bracket For angled ceilings, point opening toward peak. Turn Power OFF Make sure all four (4) bumpers are still attached. Use wood screws (included) when securing to support structure with approved electrical outlet box. Drill 9/64 pilot holes in support structure to aid in securing ceiling bracket with hardware found in the hardware bag. Use machine screws (provided with outlet box) when securing to existing ceiling fan-rated outlet box. Make sure it is securely installed and is acceptable for fan support of 31.8 kg (70 lbs) or less. If you are unable to do this, call Technical Support at To avoid possible electrical shock, before installing your fan, disconnect the power by turning off the circuit breakers to the outlet box associated with the wall switch location. 5 Refer to warning w.1 on pg. 2

6 Ceiling Bracket (continued) Preparation KEEP! DISCARD Remove the shipping blocks from the motor. Save the screws. They will be needed for blade iron installation. Time Saver Tip: Get a helper to insert grommets, found in the hardware bag, into the blades while you re doing the next couple of steps. 6

9 Downrod (continued) Put the wires and downrod through the canopy. Let the canopy sit loosely on top of the fan. DO NOT PICK THE FAN UP BY THE CANOPY OR WIRES. Place the downrod ball into the slot in the ceiling bracket. 9

10 Wiring FROM CEILING Note: To connect the wires, hold the bare metal leads together and place a wire connector over them, then twist clockwise until tight. FROM CEILING FROM CEILING FROM FAN Using an orange wire connector from the hardware bag, connect the 3 grounding wires (green, green/ yellow stripe, or bare copper) coming from the ceiling, downrod, and hanging bracket. Green/Yellow Stripe (Grounding) Green/Yellow Stripe FROM CEILING BRACKET For a Single Switch Using the orange wire connectors from the hardware bag, connect the black wire (ungrounded) from the ceiling to the black and the blue wires from the fan. Connect the white wire (grounded) from the ceiling to the white wire from the fan. Blue (Grounded) White (Ungrounded) Black F RO M FA N For Dual Switches Using orange wire connectors from the hardware bag, connect the white wire (grounded) from the ceiling to the white wire from the fan. Connect the black wire (ungrounded) from the ceiling to the black wire from the fan. Connect the second (ungrounded) wire from the ceiling to the blue wire from the fan. (Ungrounded) (Ungrounded) (Grounded) Black Blue White FR O M FAN Refer to CAUTION c.1 on pg Turn the splices upward and push them carefully back through the hanger bracket into the outlet box. Spread the wires apart, with the grounded wires on one side of the outlet box and the ungrounded wires on the other side of the outlet box.

11 Canopy Screw Holes Position the canopy so that, when lifted into place, the canopy its into the hanging bracket as shown. Lift the canopy into place so that the screw holes are aligned. Insert the two canopy screws found in the hardware bag. 11 Note: Fan style may vary.

12 Blades Remember the screws that you kept after removing the shipping blocks (page 6)? You need them for this step. Insert grommets found in the hardware bag into the holes in the blades, then secure each blade to a blade iron with screws found in the hardware bag. Lightly attach the blade irons to the motor with the blade iron armature screws, then securely tighten after both screws are attached. Your blades are shielded with Dust Armor which is a nanotechnology coating that repels dust. For cleaning the fan, use soft brushes or cloths to prevent scratching. Cleaning agents may damage the inishes. 12

13 Switch Housing Screw two (2) housing assembly screws from the hardware bag halfway into the motor housing. It does not matter which two screw holes you choose. Feed the wire plug through the center hole of the upper switch housing, then wrap keyhole slots around the screws and twist counterclockwise. the Insert the third screw, found in hardware bag, into place and then tighten all three (3) screws. 13 Make sure the upper switch housing is securely attached to the mounting plate. Failure to properly secure all 3 assembly screws could result in the switch housing ixture falling.

14 Light Kit Switch Housing Screw Switch Housing Screw Notch Partially install two of the switch housing screws found in the bag. Connect the plugs from the upper and lower switch housings. Make sure to line up the colored markings on the connectors. Align the notches in the sides of the lower switch housing with the upper switch housing screws. Lift the lower switch housing. Twist the lower switch housing clockwise to lock into place. Then thread the fan pull chain through the hole in the light kit. Install the third switch housing screw. Tighten all three screws securely. Want to install your fan without a light kit?

Note: Globe style and number of lights may vary. Press the globe and globe keeper lush against the metal plate. Thread the light pull chain through the hole in the center of the inial cap and thread the fan pull chain through the hole in the side of the cap. Finally, thread only the light pull chain through the hole in the inial and screw the inial onto the threaded rod. Connect the appropriate pull chain pendant to each of the short chains coming from the inial and inial cap. The fan pull chain controls the speed: high, medium, low, and off. The light pull chain controls the light ixture: on and off. 15 See next page for fan operation instructions. Note: In compliance with US federal energy regulations, this ceiling fan contains a device that restricts its light output. Exceeding the wattage limit marked on the MAX wattage sticker afixed to the light socket(s) may result in ire hazard or improper operation.

16 Maintenance & Cleaning ON Turn Power Metal Plate Globe Globe Keeper Finial Cap Reverse Switch Finial Changing the bulbs - unscrew the inial and remove it from the threaded rod. Remove the inial cap and unscrew the globe keeper while supporting the globe with your other hand. Carefully remove the globe. Unscrew bulbs and replace with bulbs of same type and wattage. Reinstall the globe assembly. Changing the direction of air low - move the reverse switch to the opposite position. 16 Cleaning the fan - use soft brushes or cloths to prevent scratching. Cleaning products may damage the inishes. For questions regarding removing a light kit, call customer service

17 Troubleshooting Fan doesn t work Make sure power switch is on. Pull the pull chain to make sure it is on. Push the motor reversing switch irmly left or right to ensure that it is engaged. Excessive wobbling Tighten all of the blade and blade iron screws until they are snug. Turn the power off, support the fan carefully, and check that the hanger ball is properly seated. Noisy Operation Tighten the blade and blade iron screws until they are snug. Check to see if any of the blades are cracked. If so, replace all of the blades. Lights dim when turned on or do not turn on at all. Make sure the wattage of the light bulbs installed matches the speciications on the light sockets. Check the circuit breaker to ensure the power is turned on. Make sure the blades spin freely. Use the provided balancing kit and instructions to balance the fan. Turn off power from the circuit breaker, then loosen the canopy and check all the connections according to the wiring diagram on page 10. Check the plug connection in the switch housing. 17
